Voted Most Honest Mechanic he's the best. voted "most honest mechanic" by the LA Weekly in 1999. and he is. our last mechanic never cost us less than $250 - every single time - whether this repair was the same as the last repair we had done a month ago (and still should be under warrantee) or seemed simple and quick, it was a minimum of $250.
